2013 Map of Ringwood

About this map

Medoc Mountain and its Medoc Lookout Tower anchor the northwest corner of this North Carolina landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of named wetlands and waterways. The settlements of Ringwood, White Oak, and Glenview serve as central points along the local road system, which includes routes like Ringwood Rd and Fishing Creek Rd. The region is characterized by extensive swamp systems, notably Jacket Swamp, Breeches Swamp, and Jack Horse Swamp, which suggest a low-lying environment where historical movement was channeled by crossings such as Culpeppers Bridge and Meltons Bridge. Genealogists and local historians can trace family-named landmarks like Bell Acres and various lakes, including Moss Lake and Bellamy Lake, illustrating the rural residential and agricultural patterns that persisted into the early 21st century.
